I would recommend for exercise plan 10 minute trainer. It really is effective. It's more effective if you do three 10 minute sessions versus only one. But still, 10 minutes of workout is better then none, and it's an easy goal to have. Only 10 minutes...you can handle 10 minutes right?

Started low carbing today. Decided on low carb since my diabetes seems to be starting to spiral out of control, and I need to get a grip on my blood sugar as quickly as possible, and the less sugars/carbs I put into my body, the better it will be for me.

I have been sick the last few weeks with the crud that has been running around, and even spent the night in the hospital last week...the crud and the diabetes took their toll on me. I am feeling better, but am lacking energy. Hoping the low carb will give me a bit of a boost. My endocrinologist thinks I might have to get some testosterone shots, since my levels were off.

I tried this last year, and failed so miserably, I have some serious doubts about whether I can do this. I feel like I can't let food go, even though I know that is what I need to do.

I know I need exercise too, but I am going to start out slowly. Just walking at first. I think if I start to drop some weight, I will feel like doing more. Walking briskly is apparently good for blood sugar readings, so even after I add in more aerobic exercise/weights, etc., I will probably need to walk at least every other day for the rest of my life....walking is kind of boring, so the thought of that is kind of depressing.

Sorry for my rant, I am just not in a great place when it comes to weight and health...but it is what it is. I know that if I do not get things under control and lose some weight, it is going to kill me someday.

Hey man, I've been on a low-carb diet for over a year now. If you need help you can ask me any questions on here, or in a PM, or if you want I can give you my phone number and we can talk it out. I want to help you if you need the help.

Thank you, your offer of help means a lot, and it is greatly appreciated. I will be hitting you up with questions/etc.

My biggest obstacle is not the sugary sweets...it is the starchy carbs. I love pizza, bread, potatoes, etc.

When I find a good pizza replacement that fills my craving for it, that will make a huge difference! I miss pizza already, and it is just the first day.

Did you suffer any of what they call the "carb flu" when you first started. I have a massive headache most of the day today, although I am giving up diet soda for water, so that may be due to a lack of caffeine.

This is the perfect place to rant and vent. Nothing but encouragement here friend. Having done the low carb diet, I can speak the for the first week, you will have very little energy. So if you're hoping for energy, not gonna happen for the first week.

You're absolutely right about losing weight for healthy living. I think the plan you have prepared for yourself will work very well. Just don't give up because the results will come in baby steps. Keep on keepin on. Feel free to rant, and share any questions you might have.
